NVIDIA RTX Neural Rendering technology will reduce VRAM consumption by seven times.

NVIDIA RTX Neural Rendering Technology to Reduce VRAM Usage by Sevenfold

NVIDIA has introduced the RTX Neural Rendering system, designed to reduce the load on video memory and accelerate rendering in games. The key technology, RTX Neural Texture Compression, according to the company, reduces video memory usage by seven times. Another module, RTX Neural Materials, speeds up material rendering by five times. The system also includes RTX Neural Radiance Cache (NRC) for optimizing ray tracing. Developer tools will become available at the end of January.

For gamers, the main innovation will be a significant reduction in VRAM requirements. NVIDIA also announced new DLSS models (version 4.5), improving upscaling.
